Release Automation Engineer

Overview The Release Automation Engineer owns the engineering of the release pipeline itself — building, hardening, and continuously improving the automated systems that take code from a completed sprint artifact to a verified production deployment. This role owns all of the backend function of releases, including the pipelines, the gates, the promotion logic, the rollback triggers, and the integrations, that make the entire release workflow run with precision and minimal human intervention. This role leverages AI heavily, using it to generate pipeline code, identify automation gaps, analyze failure patterns, and accelerate the engineering of smarter, self-healing release infrastructure. Starting base pay for this role is between $100,000 and $122,000. The actual base pay is dependent upon many factors, such as transferable skills, work experience, business needs, training, location, and market demands. The base pay range is subject to change and may be modified in the future. This role will be eligible for a bonus as well as competitive medical, dental, and vision benefits, wellness reimbursement, life insurance, and a 401(k) with company match.

Responsibilities CI/CD Pipeline Engineering & Ownership Designs, builds, and owns the CI/CD pipeline infrastructure across the Engineering organization — engineering reliable, fast, and maintainable pipelines in Azure DevOps and GitHub Actions that carry artifacts from code commit through build, test, security scan, and deployment with consistency and precision. Develops and maintains reusable pipeline templates, shared task libraries, and parameterized pipeline components that allow engineering teams to adopt standardized CI/CD patterns without rebuilding pipeline logic from scratch for every service. Engineers automated build, test, and packaging stages that produce verified, traceable artifacts, ensuring every artifact that enter
